The remote code block extension¶

Documenteer provides a remote-code-block directive that works like literalinclude, but supports getting content from the web.

To use this directive, add the documenteer.ext.remotecodeblock extension to your conf.py file:

extensions = ["documenteer.ext.remotecodeblock"]

Directive¶

.. remote-code-block:: url¶

Include content from url in a literal code block.

Example

.. remote-code-block:: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lsst/templates/master/file_templates/stack_license_preamble_txt/template.txt.jinja
   :language: jinja

Result:
